Presidential Spine

Our Democrate controlled House of Representatives passed a pork bloated Iraq war spending bill that also mandated a time table for troop withdrawl.

In a rare moment that we haven't seen lately our President rediscovered that he has a spine and apparently has decided to share it.

"A narrow majority in the House of Representatives abdicated its responsibility by passing a war spending bill that has no chance of becoming law and brings us no closer to getting the troops the resoures they need to do their job," the president said. "These Democrats believe that the longer they can delay funding for our troops, the more likely they are to force me to accept restrictions on our commanders, an artificial timetable for withdrawal and their pet spending projects. This is not going to happen."

Now if George would only take this strong a stance on keeping his tax breaks, securing our borders and letting the country know that he is not Nancy Pelosi's lap dog...
